Expect it leaked on to the net in August just like the XP launch so many years ago.

I wonder if they will actually defeat the newsgroup and irc pirates this time around. It seems that every time, on every release, these rogue and underfunded kids get the best of 100k a year ivy league educated topcoders from the richest country in the world.

They will not win. Almost every single app ever pubicily avaible has been pirated and any app that will be in as much demand as Vista will definatly be pirated..

I bet apple x86 OSX never gets ported off their hardware without an emulator or some other hindering factor.

What you haven't seen the developer relases of OSX for x86 that are floating around the internet yet? Too bad you didn't offer money for your bet.. I'd have accepted it without a question. Do you want it as an installable cd or just a vmware image? Both are
available.. check your local news server one of these days..
